Id say
Phillips
OCab
Votto
Gomes
Bruce
Cairo
Heisey
Hanigan
Leake
vs a lefty I could see Bruce getting the rest but Stubbs needs a break baaaad. I doubt Ramon starts a day game tomorrow, and I'm thinking Rolen will get another day and a half off until Monday night. AZ, I do think that should be the standard lineup against LHP.

Bruce gets the day off against Wandy Rodriguez (career, he's 1 for 17 against him).

Reds are 8-1 against Houston this year, no reason to think they can't go 9-1 especially with Leake on the mound.

Over the last two years Wandy Rodriquez has been a much better pitcher at Minute Maid Park. I expect a good effort from him.
Hopefully the Reds jump out on this Astros team....This year's version of the Astros is quick to open up a can of quit in a game.
You could feel it in the park last night. When Roy gave up 6....everyone in the stadium knew it was over. (it was a big crowd due to a good giveaway and possibly Roy O's last game) The only time the place got loud was when the scoreboard told them. Houston is a high baseball IQ town....they know when their boys have quit.
Drunks were heckling their own players (especially Carlos Lee)
The Reds need to finish this off...I don't want to see Houston steal one here.

Break out the brooms. Mike Leake with a 2 run bomb, Reds win 8-3.

Leake is getting Travis Wood support from the offense. Terrible.

Last two Sundays the Reds have lost 1-0 ..... If we don't score today despite being in 1st place we'll have a league high 12 shutouts
